Chapter 103: Borrowing Your Body to Make a Deal with Gu Qie, the Magic Weapon Lotus Platform
"No. 6, this is a bit tough, why don't we retreat!"
No. 12 looked at the tragic death of No. 11, and he had no intention of fighting at this time.
You know, No. 11's sequence is still higher than his, and his strength is also slightly stronger than his.
But even such No. 11 was easily suppressed in front of Lu Chen without any chance of fighting back.
Even No. 11 died so tragically, let alone a small No. 12?
Capture Lu Chen alive?
They were lucky to escape from Lu Chen alive!
You know, this is a monster who has mastered two sword intents in the Qi training period, and they are not on the same level at all.
Seeing that No. 6 was still standing there silently, No. 12 couldn't help but say: "Run, brother, we still have time to run now!"
Hearing what No. 12 said, No. 6's expression was uncertain.
And the reason why he hesitated so much was because Lu Chen's current performance... was too much like the Holy Son they were looking for.
Strong strength, outstanding talent, and ruthless means.
No matter how you look at it, Lu Chen has all the qualifications to become the Holy Son of the Black Lotus Sect.
If he can capture Lu Chen alive, even if he is finally determined not to be the Holy Son.
But No. 6 feels that it is still a great achievement for him.
After all, if he can pull a peerless swordsman who has mastered two sword intents in the Qi training stage into the camp of the Black Lotus Sect.
Then Lu Chen can at least become the guardian of the Black Lotus Sect!
And as the one who facilitated all this, he will naturally receive a huge reward from the leader.
With this opportunity, he may be able to impact the Golden Core Realm that he originally dared not think of.
In the face of this huge temptation, No. 6 finally gave it a try.
Fortunes are sought in danger, let go and don't worry too much!
He turned to look at No. 12 and said seriously: "No. 12, I have another trump card. As long as you can hold him for five seconds, I will be sure to trap him."
"Even if we still can't take him down after trapping him, we can still escape unscathed by then, and there will be no danger on either side."
Really, brother, are you really lying to me?
Listening to No. 6's telepathic transmission, No. 12 didn't know why he always felt a little unreliable.
Because he always felt that if they didn't run now, they really couldn't run.
Seeing that No. 12 was still hesitating, No. 6 immediately gave him another shot of heart.
"Trust me, I won't joke about the lives of my fellow believers."
After saying this, No. 12 couldn't say it even if he wanted to object.
So he gritted his teeth and telepathically transmitted: "5 seconds, at most 5 seconds, after 5 seconds, no matter what the result is, I will leave this dangerous place directly."
"Don't worry, believe me."
The conversation between the two seemed very long, but in fact it was only one or two seconds.
Seeing Lu Chen, who had already absorbed the essence refined by No. 11, the two knew that they should act as soon as possible.
"Go!"
As No. 6's voice fell, the power of Gu Qie in No. 12's body completely erupted, and he transformed into a strange snake-headed man and rushed towards Lu Chen.
At the same time, No. 6 also exerted the gift he received from Gu Qie.
I saw that several tumors suddenly grew on his shoulders, and then the tumors expanded and broke in a very short time, turning into a strange baby brain.
Then he put away the human-faced drum, cut his wrist with a knife, and put his hand in front of the strange head.
Faced with the temptation of blood, the strange head bit it without hesitation.
No. 6 groaned, and the face under the mask immediately began to turn pale, and the breath became visibly weak.
However, the special head that continued to absorb his essence and blood became larger and larger, and the face became more and more mature, approaching the appearance of a normal human in youth.
If he continues to grow at this rate, he will soon enter middle age, or even old age.
And this strange head has not only changed in appearance and age, but also in aura.
A strange aura different from that of ordinary cultivators began to emanate from the strange head.
At the same time when No. 6 performed the magical power of "head-falling", No. 12 had already taken two steps at a time and came to Lu Chen, who had just refined No. 11.
Because he knew the horror of Lu Chen's sword intent, No. 12 had never thought of fighting Lu Chen head-on from the beginning.
He just wanted to buy enough time for No. 6.
I can't beat you, but I can drag you along, right?
Magical power... Scaled snake poison mist!
No. 12 opened his mouth and sprayed a large amount of purple poison mist from his mouth.
When these poison mists touched the concrete ground of the pedestrian street, they immediately made a "sizzling" sound, showing extremely strong corrosiveness.
However, the biggest purpose of his using this poison mist was not to cause any harm to Lu Chen through this poison mist.
Instead, he wanted to use this poisonous fog to cover Lu Chen's vision and buy more time.
Head-on confrontation?
He and Lu Chen couldn't touch each other at all!
And his idea was also seen through by Lu Chen at the first time.
Although he didn't know what No. 6 was going to do, he followed the principle that the more the enemy wanted to do something, the more he would not let the enemy do it.
A large amount of purple flames suddenly appeared on Lu Chen's body.
Sizzle!
When No. 12's poisonous fog touched the extremely strong and yang purple fire, it immediately burned with bursts of white smoke on the spot as if it had encountered a natural enemy, and could not get close to Lu Chen at all.
Seeing this scene, No. 12's pupils shrank immediately.
He didn't expect that in addition to his outstanding swordsmanship, Lu Chen also had such profound attainments in magical powers.
You must know that this poisonous mist contains part of the ancient power.
Not to mention Qi-training stage monks, even ordinary Foundation-building stage monks might not be able to get much advantage when encountering this poisonous mist.
In the past, he relied on this move and the chain weapon that he commanded like an arm.
But he defeated several powerful enemies in the foundation building period.
But right now, his two best methods, the magical weapons, have been destroyed by Lu Chen's two swords.
The poisonous mist was broken again by Lu Chen using magical fire.
The only thing he has left that he can use is perhaps the 'Guji's body' that has been partially assimilated by Guji's power and is comparable to ordinary monks in the foundation-building stage.
But could his body really withstand Lu Chen's sword?
Three seconds, from the beginning to now, he has delayed for a full three seconds.
As long as there are two more seconds, his mission will be completed.
Thinking of this, No. 12 also became angry.
One-on-one, he admitted that he was no match for Lu Chen.
But there's no way I can't hold you back for two seconds!
"Roar!"
No. 12 roared angrily, and the snake's tail on his lower body immediately turned into a tail chain and swung towards Lu Chen.
The attack of the snake tail hidden in the poisonous mist was very secretive. Apart from making some noise in the air, there was no other noise.
Regarding his attack, No. 12 felt that even if it could not pose a threat to Lu Chen, it would definitely give him a hard time.
But his confidence didn't last long.
Because Lu Chen's vision seemed not to be affected by the poisonous mist at all, when a large amount of awe-inspiring energy gathered on the sword, a five-meter-long sword energy once again covered Lu Chen's Black Dragon Sword.
boom!
Lu Chen slashed out with his sword, not only cutting off No. 12's tail on the spot, but also directly breaking through the layers of poisonous mist, and accurately slashed towards No. 12's body!
What!
Seeing Lu Chen find his position in no time, No. 12 panicked.
How did a person who didn't even master spiritual perception find me in the poisonous fog during the Qi training period?
Is it the problem with those eyes...
Looking at Lu Chen's green lotus-shaped pupils not far away, No. 12 thought for no reason.
As for how to deal with the Haoran Qi Sword, he no longer thinks about it now.
After all, even No. 11, who was stronger than him, couldn't stop him at that time.
Then it would be even more impossible for him to block it, and he would just wait to die...
boom!
After a loud noise, No. 12 only felt a gust of wind blowing from both sides, and then looked at the Haoran Qi Sword that stopped two fingers above his head in shock, his face very pale.
It was so dangerous, I almost wanted to become brothers with No. 11.
After No. 12 sighed a little, the awe-inspiring sword energy dissipated instantly and turned into a breeze.
"Don't be stunned. Cut off his hands quickly and take away his spiritual sword. I won't be able to hold on for long."
No. 12 turned his head and saw that the strange head on No. 6's shoulder had turned into that of a middle-aged man.
And that head was staring at Lu Chen, muttering something unknown in its mouth, which turned into a series of strange magical sounds and poured into Lu Chen's ears.
Magical sound, this is how No. 6 thinks he can restrain Lu Chen.
It is true that Lu Chen not only has outstanding swordsmanship, but also has a wide variety of magical powers.
But he has a very fatal weakness.
That's because his soul is too weak.
In other words, he has no means or magic weapon to defend himself against divine soul attacks.
No. 6 discovered this when he first faced his 'Human Face Drum' and hit it without any precautions.
Although Lu Chen later defeated No. 11 in one confrontation because of his amazing swordsmanship, and immediately refined him with the magical furnace.
But that was also because No. 6 was distracted by trying to protect No. 11 and didn't think of continuing to attack him.
Thinking about it now, if he had ignored No. 11 at that time and focused on attacking Lu Chen with his soul.
Even if Lu Chen could kill No. 11, he would definitely pay a heavy price in the end.
How could they be in such a mess?
Fortunately, it's not too late to remedy the situation.
Looking at Lu Chen, who was already controlled by the demonic sound and lost his mind.
No. 6 feels that everything should be over.
As long as No. 12 cuts off his arms and takes away his spiritual sword.
Then Lu Chen, the peerless swordsman, was no longer a threat to them.
However, although No. 12 is very confident in No. 6's magic sound power.
But Lu Chen's previous performance still left a big psychological shadow on him.
So much so that even at this moment Lu Chen stood motionless with empty eyes.
No. 12 did not dare to attack immediately.
After all, what if this is his acting?
Seeing that No. 12 didn't take action at this time, No. 6 became a little anxious.
"What are you still doing in a daze? Take action quickly!"
You must know that the head on his shoulders has passed from middle age to old age.
It will disappear in a moment.
If they don't take action now, they will really have no chance when Lu Chen recovers.
After hearing No. 6's urging, No. 12 also came to his senses.
That’s right, we can’t delay it any longer!
After all, if this kid was really acting, he would have killed me with his sword long ago. How could he survive until now?
Thinking of this, No. 12 suddenly felt that he could do it again.
Okay, boy, you finally gave me a chance. You scared me so much before!
Wait a minute, I'll cut off your sword-holding hand. Then I'll see what you can use to fight us!
No. 12 walked to Lu Chen's side, raised his arm high, and prepared to use his hand instead of a knife to cut off one of Lu Chen's arms.
But just as his hand was raised and ready to fall, a hand suddenly grabbed his wrist.
No. 12 turned his head in disbelief, and saw a guy who looked exactly like Lu Chen standing next to him at some point.
Clone?
He still has a trump card that he hasn't used? !
No. 12 was so shocked that he forgot what he was going to do.
And No. 6, who had been watching coldly, reacted quickly at this time.
After all, he saw with his own eyes how the weird 'clone' appeared.
It was the shadow under Lu Chen's feet!
Go, must go!
Without any hesitation, No. 6 was ready to give up No. 12 and turn around to run away.
But just as he turned around, he found a cold phantom sword across his neck.
No. 6 looked at another clone appearing beside him, and his mind went blank instantly.
Two kinds of sword intent, magical fire, magical furnace, special pupil technique, strange clone...
If a normal Qi training period can master any one of them, he can be regarded as a good genius.
But Lu Chen can master so many methods at the same time.
Even if he started practicing since his mother's womb, he couldn't learn so many!
Could it be that this guy is really the reincarnation of some immortal god?
Thinking of this, No. 6 suddenly felt relieved.
It seems that losing to such a person is not a shameful thing.
After all, people can't fight immortals...
As the two clones exerted their strength at the same time, No. 6 was beheaded by Lu Chen's outer clone with a sword, and No. 12 was shattered by Lu Chen's outer clone with a punch.
Bang...
When the bodies of the two fell to the bottom at the same time, a small handful of dust was immediately lifted up.
Without the control of the magic sound of the magic power, Lu Chen finally came back to his senses.
After waking up, he didn't pay attention to the corpse of No. 12 who was still dead.
Instead, he looked at the headless body of No. 6 with a serious face.
It was a close call. Fortunately, he was more skilled and used the external incarnation early to guard against possible accidents, otherwise he would have been caught by this guy.
The divine thoughts of the foundation-building cultivators... It's really hard to defend against.
Lu Chen recalled the feeling that his soul and body seemed to be separated after he was surrounded by the strange magic sound.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It is true that he has crushed most of the foundation-building cultivators in terms of magical attainments and sword practice.
But compared to them, he does have a fatal weakness that cannot be made up in a short time.
That is, whether in terms of the strength of his soul or the use of his soul.
He is much worse than the old foundation-building cultivators.
Although he defeated No. 6 and others this time, it was because they didn't know that he had the means of the external incarnation.
They didn't think of killing him at the beginning, which allowed him to turn defeat into victory in the end.
If these people cooperated with each other at the beginning and fought with all their strength.
Even if he could win, it would definitely not be as easy as it is now.
Soul...
Lu Chen looked at the bodies of No. 6 and No. 12, and after thinking for a moment, he decided to use it to see the new ability unlocked after the real cultivation upgrade... Gu Qie's gift.
[Gift from Gu Qie: You can exchange designated rewards from Gu Qie by sacrificing spirit stones, natural treasures, and the essence and blood of living beings. The rewards include but are not limited to magic tools, magic skills, experience points, etc....]
[Note: This transaction has been specially handled and will not arouse the suspicion of Gu Qie]
If it is a general method, it is not easy for Lu Chen to make up for his weakness in the soul.
But Gu Qie's gift is different.
If he could use this function to exchange for a magical weapon that could protect his soul, or some special way of practicing magic.
Then the next time he encounters an enemy like No. 6, he should not be as passive as he is now.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen immediately raised his hand.
The next second, a black lotus pattern appeared on the back of his hand.
Then, Lu Chen found that he seemed to have made contact with a certain existence.
At this moment, he felt as if he was in a black and boundless space.
A mysterious existence sitting on a lotus platform with an unclear face lowered its head and slowly looked at him.
This look instantly made Lu Chen feel some unspeakable horror.
It was as if the owner of those eyes could know everything about him through the distance of time and space.
Fortunately, after a cool breeze, Lu Chen found that the great horror in his heart... disappeared.
Just as Lu Chen was thinking about how to trade with Gu Qie, an empty voice sounded beside him.
"My devout believer... Tell me what you want..."
Devout believer?
Did he think I was a member of the Black Lotus Sect?
Although I was curious about what kind of image I had in his eyes.
But Lu Chen knew that he didn't have much time and had to complete the transaction as soon as possible.
So he immediately said: "I want a magic weapon that can protect the soul, or a magic skill that can strengthen the soul."
The Supreme Being was silent for a moment, and then a special item held by a black lotus flew in front of Lu Chen.
[Gu Qie Magical Weapon: Heart-stealing Lotus Platform]
[Quality: First Realm]
[Effect: After use, it can resist three attacks from the souls of people below the fifth level of the foundation-building period, or use the lotus platform as a weapon to attack the enemy's souls. It can be fed with the heart blood of the cultivator to improve the grade]
[Side effects: There is a certain probability of being contaminated by the power of Gu Qie every time it is used]
[Tip: It can be purified by consuming experience points, and some functions will change after purification]
After giving the gift, Lu Chen's transaction with Gu Qie was completed.
Then, regardless of whether Lu Chen was willing or not, the other party immediately sent him out of the mysterious space.
When Lu Chen opened his eyes again, he found that the bodies of No. 12 and No. 6 beside him had completely disappeared on the pedestrian street at some point, as if these two people had never appeared.
Instead, he had an extra strange blood-colored lotus platform in his hand.
This lotus platform was blood red all over, and the bud in the center was like a beating heart, revealing an evil nature inside and out.
Lu Chen looked at this magic weapon and felt an inexplicable repulsion in his heart.
I always feel that this thing is not a good thing. If you use it too much, it will have some kind of impact on yourself.
Fortunately, the real immortal cultivation can purify this thing, otherwise Lu Chen might really lose money in this transaction.
After all, he can exchange precious experience points with Gu Qie.
[You consumed 5,000 experience points and purified Gu Qie's magic weapon·Heart-stealing Lotus Platform...]
[You obtained a new magic weapon·Tranquility Lotus Platform]
[Magic weapon: Tranquility Lotus Platform]
[Quality: First Realm]
[Effect: After use, it can resist a soul attack below the fifth level of the foundation-building period, or use lotus petals as soul weapons to attack the soul of the cultivator]
[Special effect·Tranquility: This thing can be integrated into the soul, slowly improving the strength of the soul]
Compared with the initial Heart-stealing Lotus Platform, the current Tranquility Lotus Platform is more useful to Lu Chen.
After all, although this Tranquility Lotus Platform can only resist a soul attack below the fifth level of the foundation-building period.
But its characteristic of slowly improving his soul strength gave Lu Chen an opportunity to make up for his own weaknesses.
You should know that in the Qi training stage, except for some people with special talents, no one can cultivate the soul.
This is because the cultivators in the Qi training stage do not know enough about the soul.
Second, many soul methods have considerable requirements for the quality of the cultivator's spiritual power and the control of spiritual power.
After all, soul cultivation is no different from other things, and any mistake may cause serious harm to the cultivator.
It is a special field with high difficulty and high risk of cultivation, and it must be carried out with sufficient confidence.
But with this meditation lotus platform, Lu Chen undoubtedly does not have to worry so much.
Although he is still in the Qi training stage, he can already start the soul tempering that can only be carried out by the foundation building stage cultivators.
As the saying goes, one step faster, every step faster.
Although Lu Chen is not sure what benefits it will bring to him to start cultivating the soul now.
But if the foundation building stage cultivators value the cultivation of the soul so much, there must be an important reason that he does not know.
Therefore, it shouldn't be a bad thing to cultivate the soul first.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen immediately bound his soul to the meditation lotus.
The next second, the meditation lotus flew to the center of Lu Chen's eyebrows.
Then Lu Chen felt a cool feeling throughout his body, and he felt relaxed and happy.
Just after Lu Chen finished all this, he suddenly heard a loud noise behind him.
He looked back and saw that the huge magic circle that had been protecting Luocheng No. 1 Middle School suddenly shook violently.
The light of the magic circle's shield also dimmed a lot.
Seeing this scene, Lu Chen rushed to the school without hesitation.
The school...something happened.
